Question 1

How do I plan a golf simulator room?

Accepted Answer

Enter your room's height, depth, and width, then pick a projector. The calculator computes the projector throw distance, ceiling and swing clearance, and where the launch monitor and ball should sit, and generates a printable build blueprint.

Question 2

Is there a free golf simulator calculator?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Links Layout is a free golf simulator calculator that visualizes your room, flags shadow and swing-clearance problems in real time, and recommends a complete build for your budget.

Question 3

How much space do I need for a golf simulator?

Accepted Answer

Most builders want at least a 10-foot ceiling, 14 feet of width, and 16 feet of depth, though 9-foot ceilings work for many golfers. The calculator checks your exact dimensions against your height and swing.

Question 4

How far should the projector be from the screen?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the projector's throw ratio and your screen width. The calculator shows the exact lens-to-screen distance and the valid throw range for any projector in its library.
